Transfer a License
All licenses for equinux products are hardware bound. When
registering our software on your computer, the license is
created for this machine. This means that a license can only be
used on a single computer.
However, transferring a license to a different computer is easy.
To transfer a license, please complete the following steps:
‣ On your old Mac, choose “MediaCentral“ > “Deactivate
MediaCentral...“
The license will now be available for registering the software
on your new Mac.
‣ Install MediaCentral on your new Mac
‣ On your new Mac, choose “MediaCentral“ > “Activate
MediaCentral“
MediaCentral will automatically fetch the free license.
